THAT is what business does and it is the only answer. when unemployment is below 5% you get much more revenue than this stupid idea of taxing the top 1% more . but that idea does get you more welfare votes in november.
I worked 33 years in construction for three contractors(all millionaires)never laid off and never collected unemployment. Paid my taxes!! You are not the only one! The tax system favors the rich!! Rommey paid 13%!! Thats fair!! At least make it fair,Congress can but won,t!! Pete
